Description

This unconventional apple pie offers a delightful twist on the classic autumn dessert by incorporating tomato ketchup and lemon juice into the fruit filling. The ketchup adds a subtle savory depth and rich color, while the lemon provides a bright zesty contrast that cuts through the sweetness. Topped with a simple, buttery crumble made from flour, sugar, cinnamon, and allspice, this pie delivers a comforting, home-style experience. It is an excellent choice for dinner parties or cozy weekend gatherings, offering a unique flavor profile that surprises and satisfies. The combination of tender baked apples and crunchy topping creates a perfect textural balance in every bite.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (191&# 194;°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the tomato ketchup and lemon juice until smooth.
  3. Add the sliced apples to the ketchup mixture and toss gently to coat evenly.
  4. In a separate small bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, and ground allspice.
  5. Cut the softened butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter or fork until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Spoon the coated apples into the unbaked 9-inch pie shell.
  7. Sprinkle the buttery sugar mixture evenly over the apples.
  8. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
  9. Cool slightly before serving.

Note

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat slices in the oven for 10 minutes to restore crispness.

For a vegan version, ensure your pie crust is vegan and use a plant-based butter substitute for the crumble topping.

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a richer dessert experience.

Firm apple varieties like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best as they hold their shape during baking.
